Saving pdf folders for transfer

How does one save folders in acrobat? Or, save pdf folders for transfer to a new ios device. I am developing a large number of folders in adobe reader on my ipad. The important ones are on acrobat, but there are so many and are unorganized. This is starting to worry me. Any fixes?

You don't back to to iCloud which is APPLE'S cloud service. You use Acrobat.com.
This link should point you in the right direction:

Any tips on reducing saved pdf files for emailing?

I have an imac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I want to send a particular company 2 pdf documents I have scanned and saved to the desk top. The email keeps bouncing back. I have reduced the two attachemnts to one- but that doesnt work either. I cant seem to find a way to reduce the size of the pdf attachemtns. I read on line to go into Preview, file, export and choose the reduce option there- but if I go inot Preview, file - I dont have an export option.
Any solutions gratefully received.
Thanks

Those are almost certainly scans embedded within a PDF container file. Either transfer the files via Dropbox or another file-sharing service, or re-gengerate the scans using lower resolution scan or (maybe) changes to the contrast settings in the scanner, or try compressing the scans (if the scans are not already compressed, as various tools that wrap scans in PDFs will attempt that).
FWIW, I'm going to guess that this question isn't an OS X Server question but more likely a question involving 10.6 and mail, and you're not looking to adjust the maximum mail message size quotas for the mail messages traversing the mail server within an OS X Server system. If you are, then that's usually via Server Admin.app or Server.app or manual commands issued at the Terminal.app prompt, depending on the version of OS X Server involved.

Saving PDF to last folder

I have Adobe Reader X 10.0.0, PDF Version 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x). I have been saving PDF's for years, and each time I save, it goes to the last folder I saved to? The other day, I had approximately 15 PDF's that had been scanned to me, and after I had saved 5 of these documents normally, it then started going straight to a temporary folder, and has done ever since, which means I have to go through all the folders to get the one I desire? I have spoken to our I.T. department and they believe its a problem with PDF and not with our system, and I believe otherwise. I can use Recent Places, but when you have done the same thing for years, and the amount I do, change is not always good
Has anyone encountered the same problem, and can help?

Hi Kat,
This is a bit geeky, but the signature appearance that you see on the page is not the signature, but just a graphical representation of the actual signature. The actual signature is a blob of hex encoded data in the PDF file that you don't really see. That aside...
When you create a digital signature the first thing Acrobat/Reader will ask you to do is select a digital ID to sign with. Acrobat then reads the digital ID and amasses some information to use to create the signature appearance. It then fills in the form field (a signature field is just a special use form field) with the appearance, BUT the signature still hasn't been created. The next thing Acrobat does is asks you to Save the file to disk. This is more geekiness, but it much safer to compute the signature byte range on disk then it is in memory. The simple explanation is it's harder for the bad guys to manipulate the bytes on disk then it is for them to control the bytes in memory and because a digital signature provides document security we err on the safe side and require the file to be written to disk before the signature is created. The other safety item is, we want to sign the signature appearance so that someone can't come along later and modify the appearance without breaking the signature, so it (the appearance) has to be created before the signature proper is created.
So at this point you've seen the signature appearance and thought that the signature has been created, but it hasn't. When you try to save to the network folder something is preventing Acrobat from saving the file and what ends up happening is the file is rolled back to the pre-signature state and the signature appearance is removed. The file is in essence untouched.
All of that aside (which is probably more than you really wanted to know) the real question is why can't the file be saved to the network folder. This isn't really a digital signature issue, but rather a network permissions issue.

Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving a file?

Is there a way to reduce the size of a final PDF created for print when saving in any software (especially illustrator)? I don't want any quality to decrease at the same time. Thanks!

Personally I would avoid optimizing the PDF's via Adobe Acrobat Pro unless you understand what you are removing from the PDF; having said that, it is the most effective way to reduce the file-size in the right hands.
If I am sending out layouts for commercial print I change my default Print / Export setting from Standard to PDF/A-1b:2005 (CMYK). This will resolve a lot of common print problems for print-ready documents and it should embed your fonts and flatten transparencies etc.
If your document is still too large you run an Audit Space Usage using Adobe Acrobat Pro. In the left pane enable 'Content' and then hit the button in the top left corner of the Content Pane and choose Audit Space Usage.

I am anew user. Initially I created several folders for my photos but now know how to transfer photo folders using iTunes. However I am unable to delete/remove the now empty folders I created in iPad.

When you are in Album view in the Photos app - tap the edit button in the upper right corner - tap the X in the corner of the album to delete it.

Options for saving PDF files in Acrobat X Pro

In Adobe Acrobat X Pro, there are options to Save a file as PDF/A, PDF/X, and PDF/E. I could not find a description on what those switches/parameters do. Would appreciate anyone telling me how they differ from a regular Save, or where I can find online documentation for them.

In short you can find several references on line for these:
PDF/A - Archive format
PDF/X - For publishers
PDF/E - Optimized for engineering drawings
For more info, check the web as suggested. The ISO is even there.

Custom "Save as PDF" directly to a destination folder overwrites previously saved PDF files

Custom "Save as PDF" directly to a destination folder overwrites previously saved PDF files
As many of you will know, within Mac OSX it is possible to "print" any document off as a PDF. You simply prepare your document then invoke the "Print" command and in the resulting print dialog box, click the "PDF" button in the bottom left corner which spills out a menu with various options including "Save as PDF..." as shown in the image below:
Selecting the last option "Edit Menu" permits users to add specific folders to which a PDF of the document will be saved. As you will note from the image above, I have created a number of destinations such as "Bank Transfers" (for anything on screen in Safari I wish to preserve when using my on-line banking facility); "Bind" (which I use with an Automator workflow to consolidate many PDFs into one long document); "Officeworks" (for stuff I need to copy to a USB stick and have printed on on large plotters); "iPad" (for anything I need to put on my iPad through "iAnnotate" or "Documents") etc
The problem I have discovered is that with the introduction of Mountain Lion, PDFs that get saved directly to a destination folder get overwritten by later versions of PDFs that are produced from the same document. This is fine when working on a single document that you may want to have the latest print of a document but not so when you produce many different PDFs from the same browser window in Safari as you surf through a number of websites etc.
Prior to Mountain Lion, pervious versions were never over-written but rather preserved them with new versions having version number suffixes added e.g., untitled.pdf, followed by untitled1.pdf, untitled2.pdf, untitled3.pdf etc.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? (other than a workaround like switching to Finder to rename or move files around)

The "Save to Web Receipts" bug existed for a long time - here's a MacOSXHints article offering a workaround in 2007. Here's another reference to it in 2009. Your contention that:
Prior to Mountain Lion, pervious [sic] versions were never over-written.
is, I'm afraid, wrong.
Apple fixed (worked around) that bug by using a .pdfworkflow, as I indicated. As I also indicated, this file can't be opened with Automator (or I just don't know how, which is no great surprise ). But it's the answer to your problems.
You can either wait for Apple to fix what is, admittedly, a huge bug in their PDF Services feature, or you can find a way of implementing the same fix they did for your own folders.
I should be doing the same, as I use PDF Services regularly, but I'm too lazy and have had too little success with Automator in general to give it a shot. You may have more success than I did.
Good luck

Error loading/saving PDF presets

Error loading/saving pdf presets
I am using CS4 and Windows 7. I have a .joboptions file I want to load in InDesign, but when I try, I get the error message: Cannot create the file. The folder may be write protected.
I am a local administrator on the computer.
I have tried manually copying the .joboptions file into the folder C:\Users\<my profile>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings, but it doesn’t show up in the list of available presets.
I used the same version of InDesign with Windows XP and was able to load and save presets this way just fine.

Thank for the tip. But unfortunately it is only a partial solution.
When I 'run as administrator' in Windows 7 I have no problems, that is a bit of a solution, but for me it is a mere workaround.
I want to find out how I can load and save PDF export settings without running as Adminstrator, since we have 7 people using the presets and they don't want to run InDesign everytime as an Administrator.
I have all the rights (local admin) to all folders, therefore I was hoping somebody already fixed this in his/her system...
Hope Adobe comes up with some sort of solution for this apperently Windows 7 problem.

Have saved pdf files to creative cloud but ipad cannot see any files

I have saved pdf files from my Windows desktop to the Creative Cloud. They are visible there when accessed from my desktop. However when logging onto the Creative Cloud on either my iPad or iPhone it says there are "no documents to display".

I hope you're referring to the iWork program Pages for Macs since that is the forum you posted in. If you want to view Pages documents on your iPad, you'll also need to get Pages for iOS from the iTunes App Store. While you're doing that, also download the free iBooks app. There are other PDF readers, but I use iBooks.
You can use iTunes to sync documents between your Mac & your iPad. For PDFs you use File > Add to Library & they will appear under "Books." For Pages documents, you can use the File Sharing section of iTunes like in the screenshot below. You can also use iCloud.com to upload from your Mac but you will need to have your iPad connected to the internet to transfer the files from the cloud to the iPad.

I saw the responses on the page to opening and saving pdfs but it is cumbersome to shut down the function in Mozilla and work around it. Is there a fix coming?

Until the Firefox 23 update I had no difficulty opening or saving pdfs in Firefox, but since the most recent update (Firefox 23) I often get error messages about damaged files when I use the download button and try to open or save files. I've checked with another browser and they open or save fine. I've tried disabling the pdf but it is cumbersome. I am using MSWord 7 if that makes any difference. Is there a fix coming for this?

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select Adobe Reader Plugin for Netscape (or something similar). Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

How do I create a Pdf form for others?

I have finally figured out how to make a pdf form, but my client wants to be able to attach the file to his e-mail and send it to his relations.
How do I create a pdf form with his adress in stead of my own e-mailaccount?
Tried to adjust my id in the preferences on my Mac, but that is not a safe way I guess...
Can anybody help me out, I'm stuck...
Bob

Yes, I want to enable the client's relations to be able to click on a link
in the pdf to automatically submit the pdf to his e-mail address.
Now a purple bar shows up when a 'relation' opens the pdf form.
In this bar is a button included for sending the form, but they have to
confirm the adding of their reaction to the 'reactions-file'. This refers to
the location where I authenticallly saved the file (on my hard disk).
I can adjust the reply e-mail adress by temporarily adjusting my id in
Acrobat preferences, but I don't know the future location of the reaction
file.
It's a difficult question, but it's based on the question: Is it possible to
make a pdf form for somebody else; so they can send en receive the reactions
on their moment and their wanted location?

Problem Saving PDF with Opacity Masks in Illustrator CS3

I'm having trouble exporting an Illlustrator CS3 file to PDF. I have two layers in the the .ai file that have opacity masks applied. When I save the file as a PDF, the two layers with opacity masks seem to disappear (or they are flattened down to white/100% transparency.) They do not show on screen nor when printing. I've tried opening the saved PDF in Illustrator to investigate, and the layers are still there, but with no opacity mask. Where am I going wrong? I've tried a new file with a simple shape and a simple opacity mask, and it exports fine to PDF. So something is wrong with my file set up, but I can't pinpoint what! I have also tried exporting to various versions of PDF, and nothing works. Help!
Screen cap from Illustrator:
Screen cap of PDF:
Correct (Illustrator) with subtle starburst effect:
Wrong (Acrobat PDf), no starburst!
Thanks for looking!

Not sure what's going on in your file, but it's definately having a problem with the Steaks layer. Trying to release the clipping mask and ungrouping all the layers is having a problem so it might have something to do with the way the streaks layer was built.
Using your file I replaced the streaks layer and put a starburst that's clipped to the icon shape. I've attached two files. One is for Illustrator CC so you can retain the gradient fill on the stroke which is only available in newer versions of Illustrator. The other has the starburst I created expanded so that you can open the file and retain the startburst look.

Problem saving pdf from preview

Since upgrading to 10.4.3 I have noticed that preview behaves strangely when re-saving pdf files. If I preview a pdf document and the use the "save" function to make a copy, the copied file is about twice the size of the original, and the Table of Contents data seems to be lost. I've noticed this for files produced from the TeX package, such as are on the physics electronic archives (http://arxiv/org). Any explanation would be appreciated! I realise that I could just save a copy directly, but it is sometimes handy to preview first, and I am a little disturbed to discover that preview appears to be changing pdf files unnecessarily when saving them.
12" powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I can't help you, but I'm having the same problem with version 9.4.1
I have been trying to "save as" some .pdf documents (monthly statements) from a financial institution, but it does not work when I right click on the file, or when I right click on the document. Like you, I click on the "disc" icon, and nothing happens. I was able to save these in August and prior, but not now. It makes no sense.
When I open these documents, they appear in a web window, not in the Reader software, so there is no tool bar showing "file", "edit", "view", etc, like what appearsw in Acrobat. I'm stumped. I posted this several days before you, but no replies yet. I'm not real eager to pay $39 for the adobe help desk just yet.

PDF enabled for comment & review is now locked

I have sent out a PDF file for review, with the Commenting & Analysis features enabled. The people who are commenting on the document have been able to open the file and add their comments, but on saving the file it seems to have tripped something, and now the document cannot have any further comments added to it.
It appears that if they send me the file again, then I can re-enable the commenting feature, but this seems to be a pretty awkward workaround, particularly if it happens more than once.
The file was created from InDesign CS2 on a PC running Windows XP. The version of Acrobat used is 7.0 (Professional).
The file is being viewed on two PCs running Windows XP, and the version of Adobe Reader used is 9.1.3.
Is there another, more efficient workaround? Is there some way of accidentally disabling the commenting features in the Adobe Reader? Could it simply be a case of a poorly created pdf file? (Though we send out many pdf files for review, and whilst several have come back with this problem, the vast majority of the files work perfectly.)
Many thanks,
David

I have encountered the same problem. One solution was to revert to Adobe Reader 8, which seemed to work in most cases.
Another workaround is:
While the PDF is still open, you can export the comments by opening the comments tab at the bottom of the screen and selecting Options > Export Selected Comments… (In Acrobat Comments > Export Comment to Data File…)
You then re-open the original file (can rename so that you can open it without closing the one that froze), then import the comments by selecting Options > Import Comments… (Comments > Import comments).
You should now be able to save the file.
(Alternatively, the exported comments (fdf file) can be sent to you).
Ruti
P.S. I have an idea that the problem may have to do with a situation where people add many comments and do not save frequently. Just like when you save the PDF too many times without doing a Save As, the file will freeze and refuse to save anymore.
